About Preston

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I am a team-first football player who values strong competition, respects the game, and works to understand it at a deeper level. I study film to see how defenses adjust and use that knowledge to improve my route running. I’m a willing blocker, embrace special teams, and stay committed to building my body, growing my football IQ, and upholding Fairmont High School’s tradition.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I am respectful toward both peers and adults and enjoy connecting with fellow students in our school community. Outside of competition, I am laid back and easygoing, but on the field, I am fiercely competitive. I enjoy training and always strive to push for “one more” rep, bringing my teammates along with me. From a very young age, I have been taught to win and lose with class, always remembering

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

I am actively involved in school and community activities. This fall, I was selected for the Big South Conference Leadership Day and performed in two acts of our school’s largest play, Mama Mia, which included singing and choreography.I am an Academic Honor Roll student, was confirmed at Grace Lutheran Church, and volunteered for Cardinal Community Day, helping rake leaves and clean.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I have learned the value of volunteering and helping others through participation in multiple food drives at both my school and church. I deeply appreciate the values my parents have instilled in me, especially gratitude for what I have been given, and I strive to use that gratitude to help others. These experiences have helped me grow and mature, shaping my sense of responsibility, teamwork, and

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

Coming from a small rural community, I’ve faced the challenge of competing in football, hockey, and baseball against larger communities where the values of hard work, competitive spirit, and integrity are not always the same. Because I’m not from a widely recognized program, I’ve learned that respect must be earned through my actions on and off the field. This challenge has given me an edge and mo

What type of college are you looking for?

Education is very important to my family and me, and I am looking for a college that feels welcoming and like home. I hope to find a place where I can reach my full potential academically, athletically, and spiritually, while also developing relationships that could last a lifetime.

A UNIT of a sophomore who produced some fantastic sophomore tape, Geerdes is an athlete many should keep an eye on going forward. He’s a massive problem on both sides of the ball. On offense, he can be an extremely effective blocker with some upside in the receiving game. With a head full of steam, there are not a lot of defenders who want to meet Geerdes in a hole, let alone any that can stonewall him. He’s shockingly fast for how big he is, too. Geerdes can separate from LBs in man coverage very quickly, and can lose them in space even quicker. On defense, Geerdes is a gigantic edge rusher who can cause a QB tons of headaches. He’s tough for tackles to lock into, and can disrupt the flow of the play with a number of different pash rushes or block sheds. Definitely a name to know.
